Description

2-Propenoic acid, butyl ester, polymer with 2-ethylhexyl 2-propenoate, ethyl 2-propenoate and N-(hydroxymethyl)-2-propenamide is a specialized acrylic copolymer designed to deliver a unique balance of properties for advanced coating and adhesive formulations. This polymer, commonly referred to as a multi-monomer acrylic resin containing methylolacrylamide, is engineered to provide excellent film formation, adhesion, and crosslinking potential. It is a critical raw material for industries requiring durable, high-performance finishes and binders, such as automotive, industrial maintenance, and textile coatings.

Application

• Automotive OEM and Refinish Coatings: Used as a film-forming resin to provide durability, gloss retention, and chemical resistance.
• Industrial Maintenance Paints: Serves as a key binder in protective coatings for metal structures, machinery, and concrete, offering weatherability and adhesion.
• Textile and Leather Finishes: Employed to create flexible, wash-resistant coatings and backings for fabrics and synthetic leather.
• Adhesives and Sealants: Functions as a base polymer in pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) and construction sealants, providing tack and cohesive strength.
• Can and Coil Coatings: Utilized in formulations that require excellent formability, corrosion resistance, and surface hardness.
• Wood Finishes: Acts as a component in varnishes and lacquers, contributing to clarity, scratch resistance, and rapid curing.
• Printing Inks: Incorporated into overprint varnishes and ink vehicles to enhance rub resistance and gloss.

Quality Control

Our acrylic copolymer is manufactured under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and performance reliability. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analysis, including tests for solid content, viscosity, acid value, and glass transition temperature (Tg). Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are provided with every shipment. We support compliance with relevant global regulatory frameworks, including REACH.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at temperatures between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). Avoid exposure to extreme heat and freezing conditions to maintain product stability and prevent phase separation or changes in viscosity. Keep away from sources of ignition.
